NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING

1st Floor Auditorium
G. Mennen Williams Building, 525 W. Ottawa, Lansing, MI 48933
The Department of Attorney General will hold a public hearing to receive public comments on proposed
changes to the Uniform Securities Act (2002) rule set.
The rules are designed to provide a standardized method for law enforcement, adult protective services,
broker-dealers, and investment advisers to provide notice of reports of suspected or detected covered
financial exploitation made by broker-dealers and investment advisers to the county prosecutor. The
rules provide forms with a description of required content that shall be included in notifications to the
county prosecutor and provide guidelines for broker-dealers and investment advisers to determine in
which county to contact the county prosecutor and how to obtain contact information for each
prosecutor’s office. They also seek to avoid confusion when multiple law enforcement agencies receive
copies of a single notification from a broker-dealer or investment adviser by requiring each law
enforcement agency that receives a copy to make a report to the county prosecutor’s office. The rules
are designed to create the least burdensome alternative for those required to comply, as the required
notification forms are each only a single page which permits reports already required to be generated in
the ordinary course of business by the agencies making the notifications as attachments.
By the authority conferred on the Department Attorney General under § 535(5) and § 535(6) of the
Uniform Securities Act (2002), MCL 451.2535(5); MCL 451.2535(6). Both § 535(5) and § 536(6) require
that the manner of notification to the county prosecutor’s office be made in a manner prescribed by the
attorney general. MCL 451.2535(5); MCL 451.2535(6).
The proposed rules will take effect immediately after filing with the Secretary of State. The proposed
issue of the Michigan Register. Copies of these proposed rules may also be obtained by mail or
Comments on these proposed rules may be made at the hearing, by mail, or by electronic mail at the
following addresses until 8/22/2024 at 05:00PM.
